Disclaimer
This is the official Shadowrocket site and guide. This disclaimer applies to the download instructions, tutorials, rule examples, and technical information published here. Please read it before downloading the app, importing a configuration, or changing system settings. Consumer rights and other statutory responsibilities are governed by applicable law.
1. App and service scope
Shadowrocket is a closed-source commercial app for managing users’ existing server details, subscriptions, and rule configurations. This site does not provide, sell, or recommend servers or subscriptions, and does not arrange, renew, or maintain the services users choose. The tutorials assume that users have lawfully obtained their own subscription or server details.
A one-time app purchase does not include a service plan. Buying the app does not grant server access, include data allowances, or guarantee connection quality. Availability, speed, and service duration depend on the user’s network and the applicable service terms. Proof of app purchase is not proof of service access.
2. Where to get the app and purchase terms
Get the iPhone / iPad version from the App Store product page. The US price is a one-time $2.99 purchase; confirm the purchase terms and current price on the App Store page. The Mac (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows, Android, and Linux versions are free. Stores may display prices in local currencies. Check the App Store page for system requirements.
Before purchasing, verify the developer, Shadow Launch Technology Limited, the official app icon, and app ID 932747118. Store availability, payments, purchase restoration, and refunds are subject to the App Store’s policies at the time. The tutorials on this site do not guarantee a refund or account availability.
3. Tutorial accuracy and configuration risks
Tutorials are based on the interface and features available when they were written. Interface labels, option locations, and system authorization flows may change between versions. If anything differs, follow the prompts in the app and the system’s instructions. Do not repeatedly approve permissions or overwrite a configuration based only on outdated steps.
Rule snippets and sample addresses illustrate syntax; they are not complete, ready-to-use configurations. Before importing or editing Config, keep a copy of the original and check rule order, policy targets, and the network you intend to use. Configuration errors may prevent access or change how requests are routed. These examples are not guaranteed to work on every device or network.
4. Installation prompts and device responsibility
Desktop and Android installers are unsigned and may trigger system warnings when downloaded or opened for the first time. Start from this site’s downloads for all platforms; installers are available only through the site’s /dl/shadowrocket/ path. Verify the source, then follow the installation prompt instructions for the relevant warning.
Allow installation only for Shadowrocket installers whose source you have verified. Do not disable security protections across your entire device. If your device is managed by an organization or installation is restricted by system policy, follow those requirements. Check installation permissions and back up existing configurations before proceeding to avoid accidental data loss.
5. External links and limits of responsibility
The App Store product page linked from this site is managed by its operator. Refer to that page for its content, transaction process, and privacy policies. The link helps users review and obtain the app; it does not mean this site controls the store’s availability or guarantee access or purchases in every region.
Do not share subscription URLs, connection passwords, or configurations containing credentials. Users are responsible for complying with local laws, network-use rules, and applicable service terms. To the extent permitted by law, this site is not liable for losses caused by misuse of tutorials, incorrect configurations, or interruptions to external services. Nothing in this disclaimer excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded. For help, see the quick start and troubleshooting guide.
